Product Description

Thrillville: Off the Rails Wii Design and build a theme park of your dreams with the most outlandish roller-coaster concepts ever. Thrillville: Off the Rails for the Wii amps up the family-friendly mix of gameplay that made Thrillville the best-selling original children's intellectual property of 2006 with some of the most outlandish roller-coaster concepts ever imagined, as well as new ways to talk to park guests and a new array of carnival games. A new lighthearted story ties together more than 100 missions, complete with 34 playable multiplayer theme-park games and social interaction with park guests that's better than ever. The in-depth conversations both advance the plot and suggest better ways to manage the park. But is every guest to be trusted?...

  • Experience the visceral fun of interacting with a theme park you create.
  • Build and ride your own creations, talk and joke with all your guests, and play dozens of minigames.
  • Use the Wii Remote and Nintendo DS stylus in innovative ways to develop roller coasters and play minigames with the flick of your wrist.
  • Create 20 death-defying WHOA Coasters such as these: - Hotrod Stunt: A nitro boost propels a car across a broken track. - Pendulizer: A giant arm grabs the car just before a gap in the track, whips it around in a full circle, then sets it down on the other side.- Escape Drop: The track holds the car stationary as it lifts itself from level ground to a full 90-degree drop. Then it lets go.
  • Visit 15 themed areas, like Battleville, Winterville, Spaceville and Aeroville, all spread throughout five new parks.
  • Distinguish your rides even more with enhanced customization options. Attach animatronics, flowers and flaming hoops to all of your coasters and rides.
  • Smarter guests, better dialogue, and more focused two-way conversation make Thrillville's socialization aspects even more amusing than before.
  • Conversation more directly impacts the story than in the original Thrillville.

    More fun than I expected!4
    When I first got a Wii, this was one of the first games that I rented - now I must own it!! I wasn't sure what to expect, having never played the original, but I thought that riding roller coasters sounded like it might look cool. Well, first off: it DOES look cool! Riding the rides you created is a lot of fun, especially when you can add in all kinds of death-defying tricks that could never exist in the real world! You can ride all the other rides too, nothing is off-limits for gameplay. Unfortunately, the ones that merely spin around can make you almost as sick as similar rides in real life.

    The minigames are hit-or-miss: some are forgettable while others are downright addictive. All are cute and well done, just depends on what you like. Personally I couldn't get enough of shooting food items at other food items, OMG it is just as silly as it sounds and I was up playing until 3am! The minigames you must play in order to "train" new park personnel are extremely fun too. There are so many different kinds of games that everyone is sure to find one or two that they can't put down.

    The only thing keeping this from being a 5-star game (for me) is the inane interactions with the park guests. You basically have the same very short list of interactions for nearly every visitor, nothing flows together like anything resembling an actual conversation, and I generally found it to be cumbesome and annoying. But, a minor drawback in an overall fun game.

    Great for all ages, fun graphics, lots of variety, and weirdly addictive minigames make for a must-own game!

    my son loves this game5
    I bought this for my 10 year old because I thought the commercials made it look like a fun game where you can build rollercoasters and run a theme park... which of course it is! But what he's really enjoying is running around 'talking' to the other people visiting the theme parks and getting them to 'like' him. Typically Cody has a very hard time with most Wii games because he's used to using the Playstation or Gamecube controllers which don't require alot of movement. This game has managed to successfully keep his interest and even teach him a little about interacting with other people (listening to what they say and responding appropriately or talk about things that interest them). I really never considered this game a teaching game when I bought it but he's having a great time and developing some people skills - it's a win win situation!

    WOW!!!!!5
    My family has had a Wii now for 11 months. Just when I think it can't get any better, I'm wrong. Of the 12 top games we already own, this one surpasses all of them. As much fun for Mom (me) as it is for my 8 and 10 year olds... and yes, they beat me in almost every one of these minigames played in Battle (multiplayer) mode.
